Is this about concise and comprehensive instructions for how to build
Emacs? In such cases, I've many times found the "Linux from scratch!"
site very useful. In this case, read here:
https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/postlfs/emacs.html
This lists all the dependencies, both mandatory and optional. Each
dependency is a link to another page, which describes how to build it
(if you don't have it installed already, and cannot download a
pre-built package). If you want to decide which optional dependency
you want, read the file INSTALL in the Emacs source tree, it gives
that information.

That's incorrect. I guess you've misread GNUMakefile. In reality, if
you have run the configure script, GNUMakefile redirects to the
top-level Makefile, and that obeys the configure-time options.

True. Type "./configure --help" for the full story.

Or run the commands inside Emacs's shell mode.
